Garnier Skin Perfector BB Cream Review

To be honest I wasn't expecting much from this as other BB creams I've tried have been twice the price. I have to say I was surprisingly impressed. This BB cream is well packaged and easy to apply. I have an uneven skin tone and am prone to blemishes and this worked quite well, my skin looked and felt much nicer. I used the BB cream with a concealer and it worked well under foundation as well.

Other pluses are that it smells pleasant, moisturises well (my skin felt really hydrated) and is a really good price too. On the downside it did seem slightly oily and I had try not to touch my face as seemed to leave an oily residue on items I'd touched.

Overall, I was impressed by this product and would consider purchasing in the future.

I remember trying this BB cream when BB creams first came out and I wasn't so impressed at the time. I remember it making my skin look very oily.

I am however pleasantly surprised that this second time trying this product has been good. It seems they have improved the formula. It smells rather good also.

I tried this product both with and without a concealer to determine whether it is better suited either way. I found that it is very easy to apply and is an extremely light feeling foundation, which is great. For my day to day activities I found the foundation to last most of the day only slightly coming off at the end of the day which was brilliant. The only negative I would have for this product would be that unless you have no major blemishes then you will definitely need to use a concealer under it for better coverage, as this foundation doesn’t seem to cover them. As this BB cream states, it corrects blemishes; I would have to disagree with that as it does cover any slight redness however not much else. I found blemishes to be very visible without the use of concealer under this BB cream. Other than that it was a good product and I would happily use it again.  

This arrived two days before I went overseas. It was the only foundation I took. Though I have to admit that I still took my moisturiser with me. I found the produce to be great when you didn't want the heavy look and I didn't even need to moisturise in the morning. It covers well and look good in photos. I would happily switch to this for every day use

Never having tried a BB cream before , I was excited to be picked for this trial . Firstly , I liked the light weight formula that felt very natural on my skin . It blended extremely easily and felt creamy on my face . I didn't like the scent of the cream , it is faint but still very noticeable . I am very pale and fair skinned , but the Light/Fair shade of this product was still slightly too dark for me which was a let down personally . The packaging of this product in the squeezy tube is really great , it easily comes out and is small enough to take around with you . I loved that this product is more three things rolled into one , as having a moisturiser , sunscreen and tinted moisturiser all in one product is definitely time saving on busy mornings . I wouldn't use this product alone if I was leaving the house however as I have quite red cheeks and although the cream did even out my complexion aside from that , it still didn't feel like quite enough coverage for my liking . I did test this product underneath my usual every day make up as well , and found it preformed well and created a nice smooth base to begin with . Surprisingly , as I am very much a full coverage girl , I did really enjoy this product . The light weight formula , the easy smooth blending and the natural looking finish with just a hint of shine definitely makes skin look healthy and glowing . I would recommend it to others if they are looking for a lighter alternative to a full face of make up , or as a moisturising base underneath other products .

The cream is quite thin in constitancy and it says it will smooth out skin, I found it did not do this. I also had quite a bad break out after using this cream.

This has a really strong perfumed fragrance. It is quite thin and runny, and would be good for people that had flawless or minor skin issues. I have redness on my cheeks and found that this didn't help hide it at all. It moisturised my skin okay, but I wouldn't skip using my regular moisturiser for this.
